Discover the potential of Ceylon Cinnamon Bark Oil for 8 important health issues. An exotic fragrance with a spicy hot and sweet taste. This incredible essential oil has some amazing properties. A gift from the Gods.
Some people think it is strange to ingest essential oils, but as alternative practitioners’ know, essential oils can deliver powerful benefits. Ceylon Cinnamon Bark Oil sits at the top of this pyramid of some renowned essential oils. Some say it is the elixir of life itself. Ceylon Cinnamon Bark oil is used quite extensively in the food industry, chief among them Coca Cola.
1. DIABETES
There is some evidence that it is the Cinnamaldehyde component of Cinnamon Bark Oil that seems to be effective for blood sugar control. This study found it the most effective compared to berberine (Ber), and metformin (Met) at controlling blood sugar levels. Another study found Cinnamaldehyde from Ceylon Cinnamon Bark Oil (Cinnamomum Zeylanicum) reduced plasma glucose concentration significantly (p<0.05) in a dose-dependent manner (63.29%). In a study from Sri Lanka Ceylon Cinnamon was found to have an effect on blood sugar control in a rat model. In this case Cinnamon was extracted from the cinnamon bark through a water distillation process similar to steam distillation that is usually used to make Bark Oil.
Of course there is considerable debate whether Cinnamaldehyde merely masks the symptoms of diabetes by modulating blood sugar control or whether it addresses the insulin production issue which effects blood sugar levels. Considering that most commercial medications do the same thing without promising a cure per se, it is well worth considering Ceylon Cinnamon Bark Oil.
Our customers have reported remarkable results in dropping blood sugar levels. It has minimal side effects and well worth exploring.
2. ANTI-BACTERIAL DISINFECTANT
Countless research studies have shown that Ceylon Cinnamon Bark Oil is one of the most powerful antibacterial agents known to man. One of the best known studies was done in France (Study - CHU Hospital Nord, Saint-Etienne, France) where it was demonstrated that Ceylon Cinnamon Bark Oil was effective against 65 strains of anti-biotic resistant bacteria. These include E-coli, Salmonella, Citrobacter, Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA).
Many people especially older people suffer from debilitating post surgery complications due to anti-biotic resistance.

The latest findings indicate that two compounds found in cinnamon — Cinnamaldehyde and Epicatechin — may be effective in fighting Alzheimer’s. According to a study by Roshni George and Donald Graves in 2013, two scientists at UC Santa Barbara, Cinnamon has been shown to prevent the development of the filamentous “tangles” found in the brain cells that characterize Alzheimer’s.
Get an ultrasonic Aroma diffuser, add 1-3 drops of Ceylon Cinnamon Bark Oil and breath it in a few times a week. A few drops added to a hot beverage is another insurance policy. Will it work?

This study by Dr. Bryan Raudenbush, Director of Undergraduate Research and associate professor of psychology at Wheeling Jesuit University in Wheeling, WV. found that the scent of Cinnamon reduced driver irritability.

Remarkably there is some evidence that Ceylon Cinnamon Bark Oil could be a Virus fighter too. A joint French Indian study based out of Pune India claimed that a Cinnamon derived procyanidin polymer can turn HIV infected people into HIV controllers (those who carry the Virus but do not develop full blown AIDS). And Cinnamaldehyde (the primary ingredient in Ceylon Cinnamon Bark Oil) was effective against the adenovirus in this study, an infection that is the most common cause of illness in the respiratory system. In this Japanese study, cinnzeylanine, isolated from Cinnamomum Zeylanicum (Ceylon Cinnamon), inhibited the proliferation of a baculovirus
